Re: Clippers owner Sterling puts it on Dunleavy to win, Dunleavy fires back

I wouldnt mind terry on this team at all. For a number of reasons. First and foremost being, were stuck with dunleavvy, and we know maggette is NOT a dunleavvy guy, dun cant get the most out of him, whereas terry IS a dunleavvy type guy. Second, it doesnt matter much, since were loosing maggette after this year, and if brand DOESNT opt out, we literally loose maggette for nothing, since him coming off of the books doesnt give us cap space to work with since were so far over the cap.

Terry can start for us no problem at PG the next couple of years. Hopefully thornton will have developed enough by next year that he can provide a lot of SF minutes, so that statistically maggette's loss will not be felt that bad.

Kaman is probably the only untouchable guy on the roster at this point in time. Brand, if he comes back will be a big waste as he will eat into about 30% of kamans output this year. I wish we had an athletic kind of PF here who could play inside outside a la Josh smith, or even a younger guy like sean williams. Then wed be getting the most out of kaman.

Next year i have no idea what we will do with the PG position. Most likely draft. The terry for maggette deal would have been good. Shame on sterling for nixing it. I like about 10% of the moves dunleavvy has made lately, but imagine if what he wanted happened. We would have had terry starting, Cassell with some backup minutes, and still have a starter quality PG on the roster in udrih. Wed have kept patterson i imagine, and overall would have had a solid team. Granted, not a team that could have gotten into the playoffs, but still much better than this team.
